A "Notorious Shedders" welcome home: waiting on the couch for the vacuuming to get done.

Typist: BethanyHome safely from my grandfather's funeral in Buffalo, I sit and type not next to a pile of happily reunited pets but beside the vacuum cleaner. I have not spent the days since returning home adventuring in the beautiful Cascadian autumn with my pets but catching up on cleaning the house. To put it lightly, it is awful. And by awful I mean how gross five shedding pets made the house while I was away and that I have to clean it. How can there be this much indoor pet hair after just thirteen days?

My house full of pet shed might be due to the fact that I have two "Notorious Shedders," according to the Neato Robot Vacuum Shed Solutions Guide. It also appears that my robot vacuums failed to clean as programmed. Wait. My only scheduled cleaners were Jason, who joined me back East at the end of my trip, and the pet sitter who, honestly, is never expected to clean up all the pet shedding that occurs while on duty. I meant to say I wish I had a robot vacuum! And if I had a Neato Robot Vacuum “Best for Pets," which has been praised for it's ability to clean pet hair by industry experts at Cnet, DailyTekk, PC Magazine and PetGuide, I would be surrounded by happy pets in a clean house instead of bonding with my vacuum cleaner.

Vacuuming instead of cuddling after a long, pet-free trip? Yeah. I wish it were different.

I have a long list of things to do and items I need on my way to becoming a full time nomad. I honestly never believed that a robot vacuum would be an item that might aid my wanderlust. However, if I had to spend less time cleaning up after my pets and I had more time for planning road trips and traveling with my pets, we'd all be a lot happier.With a Neato robot vacuum navigating around objects, into tight corners, under beds, cleaning my hardwoods a area rugs with it's powerful suction and brushes, my house could have less pet hair whether I have to unfortunately be away without them or if we all get to adventure together. I wonder if the Neato robot vacuum I wish for could also clean my future mobile home?

One way to find out, would be to win one! Is a Neato robot vacuum on one or more of your wish lists? Enter to win NOW and every day through December 2nd!(Cascadian Nomads is a host blog of Neato Robotics sweepstakes for BlogPaws and is not responsible for prize fulfillment.)

I know what you mean.I keep imagining the Neato has magical qualities to not only vacuum the house with absolutely no work on my part ut to also do the dishes clean the bathroom and dust the house as well. I mean I guess with less dirt and dust on the floor that means less in the air and less in general but... One can wish I guess.

I want Neato to be a successful company so someday they will market a Rosie like on "The Jetson's" and the dishes and dusting really can be done by a robot! There really is less general dirt when the vacuuming is done everyday. I had just done my quarterly houseplant showers and curtain washing but after 13 days away with little if any vacuuming done, I had to do it all again... which obviously does not make me happy.

So sorry to hear about your grandfather. As the owner of three goldens, the Neato is like a dream come true for us!

Golden's shed? ;) It might not matter as much what kinds of dogs you have but the volume of dogs you live with that fills the house with pet hair! Plus, the more pets you live with, the less time you have to clean. Three dogs is best no matter what... except for wishing for a robot vacuum!
